[Data-modeling] Tweaks to the food domain

[Jeff Prucher]

There are bunch of types for various beverages in the food domain, some of
which could use a little fixing up. (Most of these were also made by me --
mea culpa!)

1) Beverage <http://www.freebase.com/tools/schema/food/beverage>. I'm
wondering if this type is even necessary. The instances are a mix of general
beverage varieties ("Cocktail") and specific varieties ("Newcastle Brown
Ale"), so at the very least this should be normalized and cleaned up. And
both them "manufacturer" and "place of origin" properties seem redundant
with some of the more fully-fleshed out beverage schemas, like beer and
wine.  And the "color" property is probably pointless.


2) Whisky: This has a similar problem as beverage, in that the instances
include both distilleries and products. I think that a simple fix would be
to add a "distillery" property (and type), and reserve the "whisky" type for
the specific whiskys (similar to the beer/brewery relationship).  There's
probably a lot more that could be done with whiskies, but for now I'd just
like to clean up the current model.

What do you all think?
